Default d16y8 high compression engine tuned/converted to obd-1????

I have a 96 ex with the y8 motor. It has a set of wiseco pistons and some head work done to it. I have the regular intake and header... Compression ratio is up around 11:1 My question is wether or not i would notice a difference if i converted to obd-1 and ran a chipped ecu and obviously got it tuned. Does this setup deserve a tune or would i not notice much difference?

are you talking about the ecu conversion??? Yeah it would totally run good if you get it tuned in... I know a guy here that has a single slammer like that but he has 13.1:1 compression, but it still runs like a raped ape.
